Proceeds from a film about the devastating 2004 earthquake in Japan will go to help victims of this year’s quake and tsunami.

“A Tale of Mari and Three Puppies,” being shown at 1 p.m. Sunday, is about a girl separated from her pets after the 2004 quake. Proceeds from the film will be donated to San Diego Foundation Global Relief Fund and will benefit relief efforts in Japan.

“A Tale of Mari” is one of 11 films that will be shown during the eight-day Spring Showcase, a first for the San Diego Asian Film Foundation, which puts on a festival every fall.
